I began using the term "Old Myth" in the late 90s. It was a push-back against the Runts on message boards who were becoming waaaay too obnoxious after beating LSU in FB 3 straight yrs ('97-'99). I wanted to remind them of their irrelevency in terms of SEC FB. The term plus mentioning the fact they hadn't won an SEC FB title since JFK was in the White House put them back in their place as perennial also-rans.
